My Take
To me, Savićević belongs to that golden generation of former-Yugoslav playmakers whose touch felt almost unfair to defenders. Coming out of Podgorica, he carried the kind of improvisational genius that statistics never quite capture. What I find most admirable, though, is the second act: serving so many terms as president of Montenegro's football association shows a man who didn't just take from the game but kept giving back to a small nation finding its footing. I respect players who become custodians of their country's football. He strikes me as proud, principled, and deeply tied to his roots.
